Life, liberty and one chocolate for all! Yes, Fenty’s new lip hue is literally for every skin tone of the spectrum. A real change in the realm of brown lip colors. Normally, such a shade might work for a few ladies; however, Rihanna wanted to make sure that like her foundation, this Stunna brown would also be super inclusive.

Regarding all the hard work and love that Rihanna put into this latest Fenty Beauty product; the cosmetics brand had this to say:

“Y’all been wanting more shades. So guess what it’s STUNNA WEEK! Introducing a new shade to the STUNNA family, UNVEIL. Badgalriri tested SEVERAL shades before landing on this rich chocolate brown that looks good on EV-ERY-BODY!

Therefore, what can be expected of this lip paint? Matte or shiny? Will it be different from all the rest? Well, dolls if you got a real beauty kick out of the other Stunna lip shades you will also enjoy this one just as much. Plus, you do not need to fear of it not applying or having the same wonderful finish as the rest of the Stunna collection. Fenty Beauty addressed all of these concerns and more by stating:

“Unveil Stunna is here! Get ready for this universal chocolate Boss nude, that comes in your favorite lip paint formula and dries in a soft-matte finish. One swipe of this liquid lip is enough to get you a long-lasting lip that’ll catch every eye!”

Say it with us… “BOMB!” Furthermore, Fenty Beauty and Rihanna wanted to prove that this universal said isn’t just all fluff. They took all the talk and showed off the walk. Below get a good look at Fenty Beauty Unveil Stunna Lip Paint on multiple skin tones.

As any Fenty Beauty fan knows; Rihanna ALWAYS rocks the heck out of her products before she releases them. Did she do it again right before all eyes? Uhm… you bet she did! Furthermore, she did so on one of the biggest stages in fashion.

“The lippie y’all been asking about! Rihanna rocked UNVEIL STUNNA Lip Paint at the NYFW18 [New York Fashion Week Fall/Winter 2018]; and showed y’all a Bo$$ brown nude that you never knew you needed. Keeping that same long-lasting soft-matte formula, and adding a nude to set off your daily mood! Check your local Sephora’s worldwide for online shopping times.”

Nicki Minaj Red Hair -Spotted During MONSE Spring 2019 NYFW Show

Arianne Suggs September 14, 2018September 14, 2018

The thing about fashion week is that if you dress as a complete and total bore NO ONE will even notice your existence; which is why it brings out and encourages everyone’s style A-game. It’s not just about the dress, or shoes and undeniably chic handbag. A true NYFW week superstar has to look like they walked right out of a magazine editorial from their head, right down to their toes. Case in point, the Nicki Minaj red hair sighting that caused an “all eyes on me” collision at the MONSE Spring 2019 show.

Nicki Minaj Red Hair -Spotted During MONSE Spring 2019 NYFW Show

The MONSE couture show was indeed captivating in itself. Models drifted down the runway in prints, trench coats, re-imagined asymmetrical tops/dresses and hybrid sweater hoodies with a nautical “rope” touch. However, the front row could not be ignored, for a particular rapper did not come to just sit and look pretty; she made a fabulous hair statement!

From any angle onlookers could witness and attest that Nicki’s rouge tresses had more edge than a knife blade. It was fierce, modern and effortlessly voguish. Nonetheless, Minaj from the start has not tried to play the fashion week game safe.

She’s worn purple hair, long pink waves, platinum blonde, a short blonde bob cut with multi-color accents; the new red AND it hasn’t even been a full 7 day week yet. A style risk-taker? Oh, you bet she is, and that’s why she is Queen.

So then, are you feeling Miss Nicki’s bold red strands? Would you ever give it a try?

Spring Beauty 2019: Kith x Versace Runway Show Smoky Eye

Arianne September 14, 2018September 14, 2018

Spring beauty may make you think pastels, flushed cheeks, roses and bees. However, for the upcoming new year that could not be farther from the truth! Spring beauty 2019 trends, such as the one spotted at Kith x Versace, are edgier and bolder than ever! For fashion week, designers sent countless designs down the catwalk with makeup incorporating vibrant and dauntless lips, eyes and brows.

So then, say goodbye to playing it safe. It is time to get into more venturesome mood. In order to get you up to speed; for the next several weeks, we will be bringing all of the must-have beauty looks for 2019 straight from the runway! First up, the smokiest eye in all of makeup-land.

Spring Beauty 2019: Kith x Versace Runway Show Smoky Eye

Edgy makeup usually goes hand and hand with edgy couture. Therefore, what is the Kith x Versace like? The Versace label describes it as,

“Kith x Versace… A collection that takes Versace street wear to a new level. Sporty looks were revealed, each revisiting iconic house codes. Greek patterns, Baroque prints and gold jewelry.

The Versace logomania is reinterpreted. The blindfolded Medusa upholds the streetwise Kith aesthetic.”

Sounds legit. However, to get the details on how this look came together, we went to one of the major keys… Maybelline. The cosmetics brand spread the beauty wealth on how the smoky eye and overall style was created using their products. Maybelline reveals,

“We’re feeling this look, keyed by Grace Lee [at] Kith. She created a bold, graphic eye using our lasting drama gel eyeliner in ‘sleek onyx.’ [Then] applied our Fit Me Foundation Matte + Poreless for a flawless face; and swiped on our Super Stay Matte Ink in ‘Poet’ and ‘Driver’ to complete the look.”
